Save Highland Coffees

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Maryland Batiste. He was often the first face people would see when coming in to the shop and he always had a smile to spread around.

The world is a little less bright without that smile and we will all miss him so very much. We love you Maryland.

“We don’t need to lose this institution,” says Maryland, “it’s like family and a home away from home. If we lose this place, I wouldn’t know what to do.”

One month ago today we found out that our effort, built right here through social media, succeeded in keeping our favorite coffee shop open! Highland Coffees is here to stay and it's thanks to y'all!

In celebration of our achievement everyone who can, should take some time to head over to Highland and buy a Hot chocolate for themselves, and pass on the love by purchasing the next persons drink too. Lets continue to show this community how grateful we are for this amazing place.

If you can't stop in the shop take a moment and buy something from the online shop: http://shop.highlandcoffeesbr.com/

"Highland Coffees defines the tone of this area. It's been here for so long and so many people have stories and memories related to it. I think losing it would be a huge tragedy."
